Think you've heard it all when it comes to bizarre weight loss strategies? Just wait until you read about what women in China are reportedly doing to lose weight without having to resort to diet or exercise changes. Warning: Do not click if you are easily nauseated...

How far would you go to lose those pesky pounds? Would you eat ... worms?

Nauseating news from China: The job market is so tight in the country that women, often hired based on their appearances, have taken to drastic measures to lose weight, reports the Daily Mail. In fact, some are apparently eating roundworm eggs to lose weight prior to job interviews.

The eggs hatch in their stomach and are believed to feed on the food in your belly and also lead to intestinal distress, which results in weight loss (as unhealthy and gross as this is).

I have no words.

Please, tell me you'd never resort to such a sad and scary weight-loss strategy?!
